About the Event

The unique routes follow ancient pathways like the Pilgrim's Way, passing historic churches, manor houses, vineyards, and even llamas, all set against breathtaking scenery. More than just a run, it's a community-focused event with exceptionally well-stocked aid stations, friendly volunteers, and a fantastic atmosphere that leaves every finisher with a profound sense of achievement. With free parking, a scenic start/finish at The Sands in Farnham, and all proceeds supporting charity, it's a must-do for trail runners seeking a challenging, rewarding, and unforgettable day out. Early bird entries are available now, so secure your spot for this classic autumn adventure.
